Case Study: a large US healthcare provider strengthens network security with ScienceSoft pentesting and phishing simulation

a large US healthcare provider completes pentesting and phishing campaign in 30 days with ScienceSoft

The customer, a large US healthcare provider, engaged ScienceSoft for security testing services. Their challenge was to conduct a thorough inspection of their internal networks and public IPs, plus check staff cybersecurity awareness, after pandemic-related delays had postponed their regular security assessments.

ScienceSoft performed gray box penetration testing of internal networks and a simulated email phishing campaign. Their solution revealed critical internal vulnerabilities, such as remote code execution risks and outdated software, and provided a prioritized remediation roadmap. The testing also proved the staff's high vigilance, as only one-third of targeted employees opened phishing emails and none complied with the requests. The entire project delivered a professional security evaluation within 30 days.
